Ardo

Ardo, also known as Āosio Ardo and Tēllio Ardo, is the goddess of the ocean and the seas in the Vachai faith, and the most important member of the five primordial gods in Vachai religion. As patroness of the seas, Ardo is considered the primordial creation goddess, and she rules over the other gods.

She is the mother of Āo (god of freshwater) and sister of Rago. Her associated colors are blue and green, and some of her attributes are rocksalt, the cardinal point of the West, and the first day of the Vachai week.

Some of the oldest, most important families in Cōrienor are pledged to Ardo, including that of Dechio Taodossi, who reigns as Emperor at the beginning of the Story.
